The problem is those "flashes" rarely happen. Weeks can go by without a flash, so I'm inclined to think it's more of a blind squirrel scenario whenever he does happen to make a decent defensive play as a help defender. He's quite decent when he can put his body on the guy he's suppose to be guarding, but he's a horrid help defender and horrid at guarding anyone who isn't a PF. And that's a large reason why our defense sucks. But the main culprit is the scheme - Stotts just doesn't have a good plan for his players to implement. I would like to think someone like Thibs or Pops could teach LMA how to be a better defender, but sometimes I wonder.
